Bed Rail CPAP Tray

This is a tray I made from a few left over pieces of Red Oak from another project. I had made some nice Bullnose edging and didn’t want to waste it. I needed a place to put my CPAP machine and an idea was born. This shelf hangs on the bed rail with a bar at the back of the rail next to the mattress and the ends of the edging forming a snug fit against the rail to hold the entire thing secure and level. It slips of easily when needed. This particular machine has a power cord low at the rear and a recess had to be provided for the cord to clear the edge molding. It is stained to blend in with the bed color. I did not spend a lot of time on this project but it has improved the look and function of our room.

Nice work Terry! I have that same machine, it really helps!Great Job!Here is a CPAP pad called Pad-A-Cheek, I have never used a pad yet but my headgear cuts and rubs the back of my neck area. I think I might order one of these and try it. just thought i would pass this along to a fellow CPAP user.http://www.padacheek.com/

Nice work. Lets you keep the night stand clear for other things.By the way, I got tired of my cpap and sent it overseas. I have been using an “oral appliance” for over a year. It was fitted by a certified dentist and I now sleep better than ever without the whistling etc. that was waking me and my wife (oh, yeah, I changed the mask type a few times). I also no longer have that extra “buddy” to carry around on plane trips. It fits in a small container that you can hold in the palm of your hand. You can’t even give the cpaps away here…
